Today is the 4th and I'm so proud to be an American. I have been so blessed to live in a nation that is free and have all the privileges that I have. It is sad to see the way the country is moving, but on the other hand, it is extremely touching and humbling to see those who will do everything to protect it.
To those who have fought--God Bless You and Yours!
Today our activities included church and being with family. Yes the crazies wore the same skirt. Dan had to work tonight and so Dave and Brandy invited the girls and I over for dinner and fireworks. We ate some yummy pizza, looked at some pics,
played with the baby,
and then Dave was so excited to do fireworks he had the girls do a few sparklers before it got dark. This is the only time Annie held one.
We finally went back inside and watched a little bit of a movie until it was dark and then went back out again. The neighbors were doing some fireworks that made a lot of noise and Ty cried every time one was lit. She did not like them.
She did like the Sparklers though.
Jo Jo even started to do two at a time. They were always lit because Annie said she wanted to do it and then backed out once it was lit.
Annie and Jo Jo then had fun with the camera and took many pictures. Most were deleted.
Dave had a couple of fireworks that may or may not have been ones that weren't suppose to be lit in Nevada. He lit one and right then we had a visitor stop by.
AWESOME!!!!
The neighborhood behind their home always does a huge firework show and so we waited for them to start. They were late starting, but when they finally got going it was pretty impressive. It was also cool to look off the balcony at the whole valley and see all the fireworks going off in the distance. I forgot to take pictures, but I'm not so sure they would have turned out anyways since my camera is completely dumb.
It was a fun night though and I'm grateful for everything.
I did miss Delta and my family though. Maybe next year!
Happy Fourth!!
